Don't look for this bill allowing local control to move forward in the Republican-controlled Wisconsin legislature


Even though it conforms to a dearly (but very loosely) held GOP principle.




Proposed Wisconsin law to give cities more power over tobacco licenses.  (Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, 12/29/2015)
Wisconsin lawmakers are circulating a bill for co-sponsors that would give municipalities the power to suspend, revoke or refuse to renew tobacco licenses of businesses with documented nuisance activity, such as drug dealing and prostitution. 
The process would be very similar to how cities deal with businesses licensed to sell alcohol, said State Rep. Evan Goyke (D-Milwaukee).
